Preparation tips
¡
Use microwave-safe cookware with a lid. You can also use a plate or microwave film to cover the dish. Take ready
meals out of the packaging.
¡
Distribute the food flat in the cookware. Food which lies flat cooks more quickly than food which is piled high.
¡
After heating, leave the food to rest for 1–2ºminutes.
¡
The food transfers heat to the cookware. The cookware can become very hot. Use oven gloves.
¡
This will help the food retain its flavour. Use salt and seasonings sparingly.
¡
Cut vegetables and potatoes into equal sized pieces. Add 1–2 tbsp water for every 100 g. Stir while cooking.
¡
Add double the amount of liquid to the rice.

To prevent the popcorn from burning, after 1 minute
30 seconds, briefly take the popcorn bag out of the
